Ingredients: makes 12

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup milk

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature

3/4 cup sugar

2 large eggs

2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Frosting:

8 oz cream cheese

1/2 cup raspberry jam (seedless)

1/2 cup butter

2 cups powdered sugar

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line your cupcake
tray with cupcake liners.

In a medium bowl mix together flour, baking powder,
cinnamon, and salt. In a small bowl place vanilla extract in milk.

In a large bowl cream together butter and sugar. Beat
adding one egg at a time. Add half of the dry mix, and beat, then add milk,
then finishing off with the rest of the dry mix. Do not over beat.

Using an ice cream scooper if you have one, and fill
your cupcake liners 2/3 of the way up. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a
toothpick is inserted and comes out clean.

Pull out and cool until they are cooled all the way
through before you put frosting on.

To make frosting mix half the cream cheese and half
the butter together with all of the sugar. Beat until mixed completely, add
jam. Add the remainder of cream cheese and butter slowly as to not make runny
frosting.

Set in fridge and cool for 20 minutes to let set.

If you don't have an actual piping bag, place
frosting in sandwich bag, and cut tip off and pipe!
